D.C. again removes Delaware from list of ‘high-risk’ states
Three days after reinstating Delaware to its list of high-risk states for COVID-19, the D.C. Department of Health on Thursday for the second time dropped Delaware from the list, saying it based its flip-flop on new data provided by the Delaware Division of Public Health.
Under an order issued by D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser in July, visitors arriving in D.C. from a state on the city’s high-risk list — and D.C.

The mayor’s order designates vacation related travel as non-essential, a development that has had a direct impact on many D.C.
